Garden Themed Tea Party

Me: Let's have a tea party for the kids.My sister: Why? Do you have a tea set?Me: I got 4!My sister: Wow! For a non tea drinker like you, I can't believe you got 4 sets!Me:( just laughing)

Unlike my sister who loves green tea, warm tea or just about any kind of tea, I only drink flavored iced tea. I have a collection of teapots, tea cups and saucers of various styles and colors. They are bits and pieces that I collected to create a set. Instead of allowing these tea sets to collect dust in my cabinet, I'd like to put them to good use and so the tea party is born!So last Sunday I hosted the first ever mini tea party for my nieces. It was so much fun we (me, my sis and cousin) decided to have a themed tea party ( or any mini themed party on a budget) for the kids once a month. But if no budget, no party! hehehe! We will keep it fairly simple but fun and memorable for the kids.

The kids had lemon flavored tea( Nestea to be exact) This tea set is not expensive. I bought the cups for Php29 ( 4 cups), the teapot for Php70. The green saucers are from a different set which I will use next time.

Sis and Cousin had Apple, cinnamon and raisin tea while I had my own secret drink! hihihi!

Want some tea?

Plants strategically placed for the venue to look like a garden. hehehe! How I wish we had a beautiful garden where we can hold mini tea parties like this.

Big thank you to my wonderful sister and cousin who took part in making this party an unforgettable one. One of them will host the next tea party. I just hope my other nieces will be able to join this time.Sis made the party more fun for the kids by holding a cake decorating contest after the party. You can check it outhere.

wow that was a fab idea.. invite mo naman ako sa next party. I'm not a tea drinker myself but i love sweets and I am actually drooling by just looking at those sweet. those kids are lucky they have cool moms.

Ang galing! Nakakainggit naman! I wish I have a creative mind like yours to be able to organize and host such beautiful and colorful party. Everything is lovely. Love it! And oh! I am drooling over here!

Awww...this is a fairy tale come true garden tea party. My girl kept on saying "Wow..Wow..Wow" when I scrolled down the page to view the photos. She wanted to have one too. She loves the cups the best as they are very cute.

nahiya tuloy ako sa sarili ko. i wouldn't buy the tea set you have if i ever saw that in a store. pero now that it's in the tea party, parang ang ganda na niya!!! bagay na bagay! maybe i still need to train my eyes to see the potential in stuff i see. :)
